Yup, this is a must buy for me. I've always loved Civilization and while they did remove a lot of micromanagement, I still felt like I had control over my cities. Graphics are the best for a Civ game. Ever. It's not everyone's cup of tea but it's perhaps the best strategy game for the 360.

The Battlefield Demo is up too. And to that first guy, the battlefield demo is 1.5 gigs, even bigger. I'm definitely downloading both of these though.

I have been waiting forever for this game - I can't believe that two of the 4 games I want have demos out today - The other 2 being Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway, and The Lord of the Rings: Conquest

I have always struggled with Civilization games. I just never quite got the hang of them. Civ 4 was the last one I played and the story was the same.

Is the idea conquest (Age of Empires style) or advancement (social / economic)?

My armies always got decimated and the computer would prompt me with suggestions for advancement, which I chose but which also took me out of the game.

I want to get it, but don't.

Really liked the demo, same intuitive gameplay as the PC games but different enough to keep it interesting. I might be the only person who misses the micromanagement of the older games but.... I'll certainly buy the full game eventually (will wait until it's far less than $60 though).

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
